Personality and Beliefs

She keeps the house livery immaculate after the Tapani Massacre as a matter of tradition--one that she refuses to leave behind.​

​

Her relentlessness was drilled through sword practice, and it carries into all aspects of her life. She works tirelessly, some might argue obsessively, to build a reputation and earn wealth through combat.​

​

In a duel, imprecision can cost an arm or a leg. Lincea has developed an eye for the details, and is always measuring her surroundings. Whether enemy, business opportunity, or ally, she's perpetually watching and judging, even if she's smiling on the surface.​

Skills

Hand/Eye Coordination: In guardia! Pronti? A voi!​

Savoir Faire: Make the fight a performance to be remembered.​

Composure: Not a wrinkle to be found on your uniform.​

Suggestion: Words often suffice where the sword falls short.​

History

Born on the planet Lorenz within former Tapani space, to the Tartalia family--one of many noble families under the House Pelagia umbrella.​

​

Raised at court and trained in the arts of decorum, fencing, politics, history, and proper etiquette.​

​

Survived the purge of House Pelagia during the 903 ABY Tapani Massacre. Fled to the High Republic.​

​

Has since separated from the remnants of the Tapani diaspora. Under the nom de guerre Lincea, she has taken up the profession of blade-for-hire and mercenary, still bearing the livery of House Pelagia.​
